Fujitsu and Morinaga Milk Industry jointly develop a simulation system for raw material price fluctuations, speeding up decision-making

KAWASAKI, Japan, Oct 30, 2024 - (JCN Newswire) - Fujitsu and Morinaga Milk Industry Co., Ltd. have jointly developed a system that simulates the impact of raw material price and exchange rate fluctuations on management initiatives and business profits. This system utilizes the Fujitsu Manufacturing Supply Chain Planning offering (1) and is currently in use by Morinaga Milk Industry.

Morinaga Milk Industry previously carried out manual data collection among its 23 domestic factories and hundreds of suppliers. This system streamlines the process, enabling early visualization of the impact of raw material price fluctuations, thus contributing to faster decision-making. A two-month trial run with Morinaga Milk Industry carried out previously confirmed improvements in work efficiency and standardization.

Fujitsu will continue to support Morinaga Milk Industry's efforts to foster a corporate culture of taking on challenges and contribute to the healthy and happy lives of its customers, viewing this transformation as the essence of Digital Transformation (DX) promotion.

Overview

Fujitsu Manufacturing Supply Chain Planning is an advanced planning and simulation platform that leverages Fujitsu's deep understanding of industry-specific processes, data, algorithms, business practices, and system architecture cultivated over 30 years.

The system provided to Morinaga Milk Industry significantly reduces the time required to grasp and analyze the impact of raw material price fluctuations on profits, enhancing responsiveness to change. Its diverse simulation capabilities will support a shift toward advanced operations, i.e., sales and procurement planning that is adaptable to future expansion, and contribute to cost optimization.
